WavPack / Re: WavPack 5.5.0 Release Candidate
Last post by Porcus -
"In the default lossless mode WavPack acts just like a WinZip compressor for audio files" from the "About" is clear when you know what it means - but not until then (it took me quite some time too). A bit/byte more foolproofing could do yes.

But, WavPack does not support AIFF at all. (It handles CAF.) Looks like the options for AIFF are then MPEG-4 ALS and Monkey's (I haven't tested either - actually I just found out that Monkey's implemented that last year; it also handles AU/SND, if anyone cares).

WavPack / Re: WavPack 5.5.0 Release Candidate
Last post by ktf -
A question not specific to this release: I can't really find a statement on the WavPack website or man page that WavPack not only losslessly encodes audio, but the structure and metadata in the source file as well.

The thing is: in the past I've pointed people to WavPack when complaining about FLAC missing some functionality (DSD, floats, more than 8 channels etc.) and now I've gotten a bug report that FLAC is not able to restore AIFF/sowt (AIFF with little endian byte order) properly: it instead creates a 'normal', big-endian AIFF file. So, the audio is carried over losslessly, but is not restored to exactly the same format. This could be added to FLAC of course, but I'd rather also point this person to WavPack. In my view, FLAC is really an audio compressor with the ability to store en restore foreign metadata (e.g. RIFF chunks), but not a format that is meant to be able to replicate the exact WAV/AIFF/etc. structure bit-for-bit.

Could you add a statement to the website and/or man-page like: "WavPack compresses the whole input file and can restore it bitperfect. It does this not only for the audio, but for the whole file." You can probably think of something better/catchier. That way I can point people there. Or am I mistaken and does WavPack not do this?

This time didn't crash foobar.
Log says:
Code: [Select]
Error: Spider Monkey Panel v1.6.2-dev+7c0928bf ({431A134A-DA45-41CB-B636-E251B4FBBE1C})
missing ) after argument list

File: buttons_toolbar_test.js
Line: 111, Column: 20
Source: console.log('TEST 6';

Edit:

Maybe I'm wrong but looking the other console.log(TEST) and the log itself "missing ) after argument list"  :D seems to me that a pair of ) are missing in TEST6 and TEST7

Now it crashes foobar

The log is

Code: [Select]
TEST 1

Try again with this file please. It will crash but giving us a hint about the part crashing.

First open the native console panel and click on write log (write it to a different file than the one named console.log at the profile folder) for ex. to console2.log. Then load the script. Finally post the log (the one with more lines like "TEST X" of the 2 console files).

Support - (fb2k) / Foobar2000 finds no music
Last post by jhaley88 -
Opened my Foobar2000 today and found no music listed. Nothing. Always before it automatically found all music. I can see the list I had in Library under "All Music." I can "add to playlist," etc., but damn, that sounds like a mess. I just want to see that list, ALL Music, when I open Foobar.

What happened? How can I get the list back?

General - (fb2k) / Re: Approaches to Tagging Structure Discussion Thread
Last post by Porcus -
On Vorbis comments, since I mainly use FLAC for lossless:

I often see Vorbis comment fields with space, that is allowed. So <ENCODEDBY> and <ENCODED BY>, but rarer <ENCODED-BY>. (Maybe even maybe even <ENCODED_BY> is less rare? Picard seems to use underscore, but AFAIUnderstand, some applications that access MusicBrainz seem to use space.)
Also <ALBUM ARTIST> and <ALBUM ARTIST SORT> and that kind. Also I use - probably from dBpoweramp? - <CATALOG #> rather than <CATALOG>.
And <UNSYNCED LYRICS> rather than <UNSYNCEDLYRICS> (I think both are more common than <LYRICS> for unsynced.)

Then there is ORGANIZATION. foobar2000 maps PUBLISHER to ORGANIZATION: uses sees it as if it were PUBLISHER, but the file always gets ORGANIZATION instead. LABEL stays LABEL though.

And I more often see <URL> than <WEBSITE>.

Also, custom tags like ACCURATERIPDISCID / ACCURATERIPID are largely application-specific.

CUETools / Re: CUETools.ARCue.exe reports a bad rip as accurately ripped. What's going on here?
Last post by Porcus -
So this seems to be at the very end of the rip. Last tenth of a second. In a duration of 4139 stereo samples (8278), 5342 differ - in the least significant bit. 3543 differ either in L or R or both.

Hunch:
* This is the fade-out, where there is only dither noise.
* Your drive does not read lead-out? And replaces it by zeroes.
* Thus, for a tenth of a second, one rip has some -90.31 dB samples, that is, some noise considerably quite a bit lower than that, and your drive (at those settings) does not capture that.

Then you could ask why it verifies as accurate? For precisely the above reason - sometimes some samples at the very end are zeroed out, without any need to worry - AccurateRip does not take the very last samples into account. Nor the very first. What CUEToolsDB does ... I don't know.
